The 1982 FA Charity Shield was a football match between Liverpool and Tottenham Hotspur at Wembley on 21 August 1982.[1] Liverpool, managed by Bob Paisley had won the 1981–82 Football League, and Tottenham, managed by Keith Burkinshaw had won the 1982 FA Cup Final for a consecutive season. In doing so the teams qualified for the season opener which was played the week before the new league season kicked off.[2][3] Ian Rush scored the only goal in the thirty-second minute to win the trophy for a ninth time for Liverpool.[4][5]
